hands.

imbalance or poor cutting performance, have the blade sharpened by an
authorized Honda lawn mower dealer.

Blade Removal
1. Turn the fuel valve OFF, and rest the mower on its right side, so the carburetor
side is up.
NOTE: Hard starting and fuel leakage may result if the mower is placed with
the carburetor side down.
2. Remove the two blade bolts with a 14 mm socket wrench. Use a wooden
block to prevent the blade from turning when removing the bolts.
